BeeHome Premium

Your contribution makes a difference

With a BeeHome Premium, you offer a suitable nesting place to a variety of peaceful wild bees, such as the thistle mason bee, the large carpenter bee, and the viper's bugloss mason bee.

Handcrafted nesting aid with ecological materials from responsible production

Our handcrafted wild bee house is produced exclusively in Switzerland in social workshops. For this, we use ecological materials from responsible production: Untreated wood from sustainable forestry for the outer box, giant reed, solid wood, rotting wood with white rot, and clay as nesting material, as well as a recyclable PETG roof.

Wild Bees
Humans and wild bees share the same habitat safely – because wild bees do not sting and do not produce honey. Your food and sweet drinks are of no concern to them. The harmless and peaceful pollinators are exclusively interested in pollen and nectar.

Consultation & Installation

We advise you on the selection of a suitable location and professionally install the Swiss design product from fair production on-site.  

Locations

The BeeHome Premium can be installed almost anywhere in the city or countryside and, with its size of over two meters, enriches: Private gardens, residential areas, public places, parks, school grounds, corporate premises, sports facilities, senior residences, healthcare facilities
